Valley Community Broadcasting Changes FM Frequency
Tax Day is moving day for Valley Community Broadcasting when the community radio station changes to a new, clearer frequency of 104.9 FM.
The move to 104.9 FM will enable a better reception and is another example of providing the local community a uniquely high-quality listening experience. 103.1 FM has been used since the station debuted in December of 2016, and over time was determined the signal was not as clear in some parts of the Lower Snoqualmie Valley as it was in others.
“The decision to move to 104.9 on the FM dial should help improve our reception in those places we currently reach by eliminating other station interference”, said Stuart Lisk, president of Valley Community Broadcasting.
The music and locally produced shows will continue uninterrupted as the frequency change occurs over the weekend of April 14th.
Valley Community Broadcasting will move its domain including web and email as well as the streaming service to www.valley1049.org during a short transition period.

Really enjoy your programming, just found out about the station. Music very much like The Mountain 5 years ago before their demise (IMHO), 420 vs 520 Funny, hmmm…. any coincidence? Wish you had a few more Watts tho, reception not bad here near Duvall HS but fades as I drive into Duvall.
Cheers! Ron
Hi Ron,
My name is Stuart Lisk, President of the board. As a 100 Watt station it is challenging given our terrain issues. We just upgraded out antenna, raised the tower 20 feet, and changed frequency to improve our FM signal reception. Are you interested in getting involved?
I look forward to meeting you some time.
Regards,
Stuart
